Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Made from a pattern from the 70’s, this top was pretty challenging because of all that chiffon, which I realized I hate working with!! I love this top though. In real life it doesn’t look lopsided like it does in the photos- oops.

I love this one too! ;) just a little tips, you can try to put a paper under the chiffon fabric when you’re sewing. It makes us easier to sew chiffon fabric. Then, after sewing it, we can tear off the paper :)
